about

The translation of ‘Nawader’ in English is ‘rare, or precious, things’. In this collection I have put together something for everyone, including two ‘tableaux’ especially composed or arranged to be performed by groups on stage, and reflecting different moods or styles. One of these is Sherra el Fan, a baladi style piece based on the idea of a street populated by musicians and dancers (much like Mohamed Ali Street in days gone by), with the dancers being invited to come and interpret the different instruments. The other is the ‘Alexandrian Beach Tableau’, a cocktail of songs about love and summer fun in the sun, sea and sand, culminating in the joyful ‘Doq el Shamassi’, originally made famous by the Reda Troupe.
The album also contains five beautiful classic songs, a brand new opening (majencee), an instrumental piece originally danced by Samia Gamal, a live baladi track and two drum solos.
